Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not kno... - Anaïs Nin

"The personal life deeply lived always expands into truths beyond itself."

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage."

"The dream was always running ahead of me. To catch up, to live for a moment in unison, was the miracle."

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."

"We are like sculptors, constantly carving out of others the image we long for, need, love or desire, often against reality, against their benefit, and always, in the end, a disappointment, because it does not fit them."
